I'll try later.

Simple straight forward, no fuss, no glamour. sounds like a Pentaxian way of life. Nice post. And to think that poor guy used all that energy to just take a nap

First I got a screen with a video, but the video wouldn't play. Then I got the same screen J. Scott got.

I have no control over browser compatibility issues and/or page errors. Nor do I have anything even remotely resembling the expertise to suggest fixes. I wish I did....but I don't. It either plays for you or it doesn't.

And you're missing a hilarious little life lesson, those of you who can't see it.

Flash throws about ten errors when I go to play it, and then I get the page everyone else is getting when I go to refresh...

Mike Cash · 05-31-2009, 11:22 AM

Found the same thing on YouTube. See if that works for you.

MPrince · 05-31-2009, 05:32 PM

That is just too funny for words, Mike, especially when viewed with your allegory in mind.

KungPOW · 05-31-2009, 06:47 PM

I work with a guy that does that dance fight stuff.

No idea if he can use a camera.

We hear it quite often here, don't we?

Some mild-mannered Pentaxian goes to an event hoping to enjoy a nice day taking purty pikchurs and some Canon/Nikon fanboy starts acting a fool, giving him a load of crap.....Often followed by a figurative KO when they see the results the mild-mannered Pentaxian has turned in with his unassuming camera.

Allegory: a representation of an abstract or spiritual meaning through concrete or material forms; figurative treatment of one subject under the guise of another.
